      <title>PEA (Palmitoylethanolamide) as Supplement: Gaining in Popularity, And For Good Reason</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506632-PEA-Palmitoylethanolamide-as-Supplement-Gaining-in-Popularity-And-For-Good-Reason</link>
      <description>I recently received a recommendation from a lab with a simplified process for dealing with the massive numbers of patients with allergy problems nowadays: there aren't enough allergologists and pneumologists to evaluate everyone, so just go ahead and send them to the lab. The estimate for overall allergic disease prevalence in the Western world in the 1960s was roughly 1 to 10% of the population, depending on your parameters, primarily driven by hay fever and allergic rhinitis, with asthma just beginning its epidemic rise and food allergies barely on the radar. Today, by contrast, 30% have at least one allergy, illustrating the dramatic shift over the past six decades. The statistics are skyrocketing, and it's thought one in two will be affected by 2050. So what happened? There's very good literature from mainstream sources, and with fascinating details for those who love molecular biology. For me the upshot, if you'll excuse the pun, is that COVID-19 happened. We can't blame it...</description>

      <title>Babies are being given and dying from a vaccine that was created for sexually active adults</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506618-Babies-are-being-given-and-dying-from-a-vaccine-that-was-created-for-sexually-active-adults</link>
      <description>For decades, the hepatitis B vaccine has been presented to parents as a routine and unquestioned part of newborn care in the United States. But critics of the vaccine schedule are increasingly challenging the origins of the shot, arguing that the vaccine was never originally intended for healthy infants and that its expansion into universal newborn use was driven more by pharmaceutical economics than public health necessity. The hepatitis B vaccine was first developed in the early 1980s for adults considered at high risk of infection, including intravenous drug users, individuals with multiple sexual partners, sex workers, and healthcare workers exposed to blood. Hepatitis B is primarily spread through blood and bodily fluids, and early public-health campaigns focused heavily on adult transmission risk factors. According to vaccine critics, healthy newborn babies were not the original target population for the vaccine. They argue that when adoption among adults failed to meet...</description>

      <description>Global mental disorders have nearly doubled since 1990, now affecting 1.2 billion people worldwide Mental disorders are now the leading cause of years lived with disability globally, accounting for more than 17% of all disability worldwide. The highest mental disorder burden is observed among individuals aged 15-19 and women of all ages, driven largely by anxiety and depressive disorders. Mental disorder burden varies widely across countries, with some of the highest levels observed in high-income regions such as Australasia and Western Europe. SEATTLE, Wash. - May 21, 2026 - Nearly 1.2 billion people worldwide are living with a mental disorder, nearly double the number recorded in 1990. According to a new study, this stark rise has placed mental disorders as the leading cause of disability globally, surpassing cardiovascular disease, cancer, and musculoskeletal conditions. The study, led by researchers at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) in collaboration with...</description>

      <description>Tick-induced meat allergy incidence jumped 301% since 2021 alone, demanding an urgent investigation into past and present tick-related research and biowarfare programs. Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) — the tick-borne allergy that turns red meat, pork, and sometimes dairy into an anaphylaxis risk — is no longer rare. A new study presented at the American College of Gastroenterology 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting delivers the clearest picture yet: the incidence of alpha-gal syndrome has exploded among Americans.</description>

      <title>Lunatics have taken charge of the asylum: Peer-reviewed paper says genetically engineering ticks to spread meat allergies is "morally obligatory"</title>

      <description>This is absolutely absurd. A recent peer-reviewed paper titled, Beneficial Bloodsucking, argues that alpha-gal syndrome — the tick-borne condition that can make people allergic to red meat — should be treated as a form of "moral bioenhancement." The authors (Western Michigan University professors) argue that because they believe eating meat is morally wrong, intentionally spreading a meat allergy using CRISPR-edited ticks could make people more "virtuous" by forcing them away from mammalian meat.</description>

      <title>Unregulated wireless 5G rollout under HR 2289 would be catastrophic for human health and the environment</title>

      <description>The purpose of HR 2289, currently being considered in the U.S. Congress, is to remove all local control over the rollout of 5G cell towers. There are many reasons that unregulated 5G (which stands for 5th generation), will bring devastation. It will greatly increase the risk of out of control fires, and cause very adverse health impacts, for which there is extensive documentation. Overloading Utility Poles Causes High Risk of Wildfires Unless you have been paying very close attention to the rollout of these small cells (short for cell towers), you may not be aware that they can allow for small-refrigerator-size cabinets of heavy equipment, filled with highly flammable material (diesel or propane fuel, or lithium batteries), to be hung perilously from utility poles — or placed on the ground — closely spaced throughout our neighborhoods. In news reports of a wildfire sweeping through Santa Rosa, California, it was noted that propane generators were exploding everywhere.</description>

      <title>Hantavirus - A pandemic treaty 'wake up call'?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506274-Hantavirus-A-pandemic-treaty-wake-up-call</link>
      <description>The Hantavirus outbreak keeps on going. The case count is up to 11, with 9 *ahem* "confirmed" by PCR test. The French government is isolating their five cruise ship passengers, and anybody those five people may have talked to, and they are worried the virus may have mutated. A Dutch hospital is "racing" to "curb the spread" after a "protocol breach". The spectre of "asymptomatic cases" is suddenly looming, and some "experts" are warning it might be more contagious than previously thought. The WHO Director General is warning we should prepare for more cases. For reference sake, hantaviruses are endemic in much of the world, and - according to the most recent literature review on the subject - it is very unlikely it can spread person to person: The balance of the evidence does not support the claim of human-to-human transmission of ANDV (You might want to download a PDF copy of this paper, before it disappears from the internet.) There was actually markedly bigger hantavirus outbreak...</description>

      <title>New research finds almost all plant-based meat alternatives contain mycotoxins</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506239-New-research-finds-almost-all-plant-based-meat-alternatives-contain-mycotoxins</link>
      <description>New research into plant-based food and drinks has found a prevalence of mycotoxins — naturally occurring poisonous compounds produced by fungi — in hundreds of vegetarian and vegan products. A total of 212 plant-based meat alternatives (PMBAs) and plant-based beverages (PBBs) from UK shelves were tested — and all of them contained at least one of 19 mycotoxins, with multiple products containing more than one. The study, led by the University of Parma in Italy and co-authored by Cranfield University, tested a broad spectrum of products readily available to UK consumers, such as burgers, vegetarian chicken pieces, vegan sausages, oat-, almond- and soy-based milks. The study, "Mycotoxin contamination in plant-based beverages and meat alternatives: A survey of the UK market," is published in Food Control.</description>

      <title>Is this Hantavirus a bioweapon?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506231-Is-this-Hantavirus-a-bioweapon</link>
      <description>The WHO, Big Pharma, and the other bad actors behind the Covid catastrophe are at it again. At this writing, they're churning out industrial-strength fear porn regarding an alleged outbreak of Hantavirus infections aboard a small cruise ship, the MV Hondius. If all this gives you flashbacks to the Diamond Princess cruise ship incident from the early days of Covid, you're not alone. But before we all hide in our closets (again) until Moderna and friends save us (again) with another toxic gene-therapy pseudo-vaccine (which of course, they and about a dozen other Big Pharma profiteers have been working on for years), let's take a moment to consider the pathogen in question - Hantavirus.</description>

      <title>Health insurers and organizations literally bribe pediatricians to give your baby vaccines</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506202-Health-insurers-and-organizations-literally-bribe-pediatricians-to-give-your-baby-vaccines</link>
      <description>Even pediatricians need to be bribed to inject these products. Health insurers and organizations literally bribe pediatricians to give your baby 25 vaccine doses before 3 years of age. For example, pediatricians in the 3-million-person Health Net network receive a $2,500 bonus for each baby receiving 25 vaccine doses by 2.5 years of age. A paralegal at my firm quickly found 27 additional examples of insurers and providers from across the country offering such bribes. See list below. It is amazing that even pediatricians need to be bribed to inject these products. How do you think this affects how pediatricians treat parents during "well-check" visits?</description>

      <description>Finalization of the much-heralded Pandemic Agreement, the flagship of the World Health Organization's pandemic agenda, has just been postponed again after another failure to resolve disagreements. Despite heavy pressure from the WHO and European Union in yet another meeting, in Geneva, Switzerland, a large bloc of African states are refusing to sign on to what they consider a clear colonialist agenda. Which of course it is, aimed at putting Covid-era wealth transfers on a more permanent footing. The WHO, for reasons explained below, is doing what it is paid to do. Major financial sponsors of the WHO have much to gain from getting this Agreement through. It has fallen on African leaders, attuned to the model of rich countries and their corporations imposing rules designed for wealth extraction, to protect the rest of us from the farce that the current public health approach to pandemics has become. The fact that the agency tasked with building capacity and promoting sustainability...</description>

      <description>People with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis carry higher levels of micro- and nanoplastics, which intensify gut inflammation and make flares harder to control An inflamed gut absorbs plastic particles more easily, allowing them to enter tissue, overstimulate immune cells, and worsen both local and whole-body symptoms Smaller plastic particles cause greater harm by disrupting gut bacteria, weakening your intestinal barrier, and draining the cellular energy needed for repair Daily plastic exposure from bottled water, food packaging, and indoor dust acts as a constant inflammatory trigger that slows recovery even when diet and treatment look "right" Reducing plastic exposure and restoring cellular energy removes a major environmental stressor, giving your gut the conditions it needs to stabilize and heal Imagine doing everything "right" — following your doctor's advice, carefully watching your diet — yet still experiencing painful flares that derail your life.

      <title>The American medical establishment didn't discover a mental health crisis: It created one</title>

      <description>The American medical establishment has been working for over 100 years to fabricate a mental health crisis, but with contemporary perceptions of depression and sadness at all-time highs, coupled with prescription drug use run rampant, they may have created a real one. An enormous amount of Americans are diagnosed with some form of mental illness, invariably leading them to be prescribed intense regimens of drugs that manufacturers and doctors claim will resolve the issues. However, as many experts at the MAHA Institute's Mental Health and Overmedicalization Summit on Monday noted, outcomes for long-term use of common medications like Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) or benzodiazepines, are often more negative than the underlying reason patients were given them in the first place: increased suicidal ideation, more intense depression, a strong correlation with tendency toward violence (e.g. school shooters), and much more.</description>

      <title>What is hantavirus, suspected in deaths of three people on cruise ship?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/506108-What-is-hantavirus-suspected-in-deaths-of-three-people-on-cruise-ship</link>
      <description>World Health Organization says risk to the general public remains low despite suspected outbreak on the MV Hondius. Three people who were on board a Netherlands-based cruise ship in the Atlantic have died during a suspected outbreak of the hantavirus, authorities say. The virus is a rare infection transmitted to humans by rodents. On Monday, the World Health Organization (WHO) said the risk posed by the hantavirus to the wider public remained low despite the deaths on the MV Hondius cruise ship. So what is the hantavirus, how does it spread and should people be worried? Who caught the hantavirus on the MV Hondius? The MV Hondius was sailing from Ushuaia, Argentina, to Cape Verde. Currently anchored off Cape Verde, the ship was considering sailing to Las Palmas or Tenerife for disembarkation, Reuters reported on Monday.</description>

      <description>Agency faces furious backlash A newly surfaced CIA document suggests US intelligence once reviewed research that hinted at a possible cancer treatment more than 60 years ago. The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors. The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy. The research also highlighted experiments showing that certain chemical compounds were capable of targeting both parasitic infections and malignant tumors.</description>

      <title>Flu vaccine no longer mandated for US troops, Hegseth says</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505905-Flu-vaccine-no-longer-mandated-for-US-troops-Hegseth-says</link>
      <description>Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Tuesday that the U.S. military will no longer require all American troops to get the flu vaccine, citing "medical autonomy" and religious freedom. "The notion that a flu vaccine must be mandatory for every service member, everywhere, in every circumstance at all times is just overly broad and not rational," Hegseth said in a video posted on social media. He said American service members are free to get the flu vaccine but will not be forced to "because your body, your faith and your convictions are not negotiable." Hegseth's directive does allow for the military services to request to keep the vaccine requirement in place, according to a memo enacting the policy posted online. It says the services have 15 days to make those requests. Vaccination programs in the U.S. military date back to the American Revolution. But they became a contentious political issue during the coronavirus pandemic, when more than 8,400 troops were forced out of the...</description>

      <title>A reckoning is underway at the FDA after report is made on child deaths due to Covid vax</title>

      <description>For months, a quiet battle has been unfolding inside the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It began with an analysis of child deaths after Covid vaccination, followed by strategic leaks to major media outlets, and has now erupted into the open with a memo from the regulator's own vaccine chief. In September, it was reported that FDA officials had privately investigated 25 paediatric deaths following Covid vaccination — the first systematic review of such cases since the rollout began. The findings were meant to be presented to the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). But the presentation never came. The meeting passed without a word. Something had happened behind closed doors. Now we know what.</description>

      <title>Ditch the sanitizer and start exercising your immune system</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505809-Ditch-the-sanitizer-and-start-exercising-your-immune-system</link>
      <description>Bugs, viruses, and sickness — these maladies creep into countless conversations as people wrestle with the question: How do I strengthen my immune system? The overriding answer from the conventional pharmaceutical and vaccine industry is that functional wellness comes from a pill, a needle, or some kind of medical treatment. As a farmer with thousands of animals and no vet bills, I can attest that the overriding conventional notion in the livestock industry is that a sick animal is apparently pharmaceutically disadvantaged. I have a completely opposite paradigm: A sick animal testifies to my own mistakes. Maybe I chose weak seedstock. Over many decades of livestock farming, I've had half a dozen economically significant sickness outbreaks across various species. Every single time, the problem was my fault. Hygiene, diet, stress, discomfort, and toxins. An animal can get sick for many reasons, none of which is because it was medically deprived. That brings me to people.</description>

      <title>From debris to acid rain: The environmental cost of US-Israeli 'ecocidal war' on Iran</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505802-From-debris-to-acid-rain-The-environmental-cost-of-US-Israeli-ecocidal-war-on-Iran</link>
      <description>Following the launch of the war imposed by Israel and the United States against Iran on February 28, numerous civilian targets across the country were struck, causing extensive environmental damage, condemned as ecocide in many cases. Among these attacks, the targeting of oil storage facilities in various parts of Tehran on the ninth day of the war stands out as one of the most blatant examples of this approach. The aggressive strikes not only caused significant material destruction but also triggered the widespread release of environmental pollutants across urban areas, leaving serious consequences for public health and environmental quality. According to available reports, on March 8, several fuel-related and oil storage targets in Tehran and Alborz provinces were hit. Accounts point to multiple storage depots and at least one oil transfer and logistics center being targeted, including sites in the northern, southern, and western parts of Tehran, as well as a facility in Karaj. A...</description>

Just 40.2 percent of health care personnel who responded to the survey said they received a COVID-19 shot between the fall of 2024 and early 2025, CDC researchers said on April 2. The rate of vaccination was higher, 76.3 percent, for influenza. The survey was conducted online from March 26 to April 17 in 2025, following the 2024-2025 respiratory virus season. The season begins in the fall of each year and runs into the next year. Some 2,650 health care workers responded to the survey.</description>

      <description>We have completed the largest real-world human analysis to date evaluating ivermectin and mebendazole in cancer patients — and the results represent one of the most compelling clinical signals ever documented for repurposed anti-parasitic therapies in oncology. The manuscript is now available as a preprint on the Zenodo research repository, operated by the European Organization for Nuclear Research, while undergoing peer review at leading oncology journals: "Real-World Clinical Outcomes of Ivermectin and Mebendazole in Cancer Patients: Results from a Prospective Observational Cohort." In this real-world prospective clinical program evaluation, a diverse population of cancer patients (n=197) were prescribed compounded ivermectin-mebendazole, with each capsule containing 25 mg ivermectin and 250 mg mebendazole. At approximately six months post-treatment initiation, we observed an 84.4% Clinical Benefit Ratio (CBR), with nearly half of cancer patients (48.4%) reporting either no...</description>

      <title>Beware of Pseudo-Science: In Defense of Melatonin</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505570-Beware-of-Pseudo-Science-In-Defense-of-Melatonin</link>
      <description>Against cardiovascular disease, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and other conjunctive tissue anomalies (and for multiple other conditions too!) Whenever the American Heart Association publishes an abstract that is not peer-reviewed for a study that is not even published, you have to turn on your BS meter and apply some good old common sense. In "Long-term use of melatonin supplements to support sleep may have negative health effects", they took electronic records and highlighted those who were taking melatonin, correlating with heart failure. Mind you, if you're in heart failure, you'll have insomnia because you can't sleep due to your symptoms. So you'll need to take something. If you don't have heart failure, you sleep better and hence don't require anything. Correlation doesn't equal causation, making this another case of the firefighters getting blamed for the fire. Melatonin doesn't require a prescription in the U.S., hence it is over-the-counter, and this alone could bias the results...</description>

      <description>Having been a dental nurse for more than a decade, Nikola Brindley was familiar with vaccination requirements for healthcare workers. So when she was asked to have AstraZeneca's Covid jab in July 2021, she agreed without hesitation. But within hours, Brindley was in A&amp;amp;E fighting for her life as an allergic reaction began to shut down multiple organ systems. She recalled: "I collapsed on the doorway, and pretty much lost the ability to walk. My husband rushed me to hospital, my heart rate had soared and I couldn't speak. We were told that if I'd been 10 minutes later, there would have been nothing they could have done." Nearly five years later, the 36-year-old, who lives on the Isle of Man, remains profoundly affected. She lives with ongoing brain fog, chronic pain, headaches and gastrointestinal problems, and requires monitoring from a variety of specialists. Her worsening fatigue has left her requiring a wheelchair, while some days, she struggles to keep down food. Previously...</description>

      <description>A new study published in Scientific Reports titled, Longer wavelengths in sunlight pass through the human body and have a systemic impact which improves vision, confirms what animal studies have long suggested: longer wavelengths of sunlight — particularly in the infrared range (830-860 nm) — can penetrate the human body and improve mitochondrial function systemically. Remarkably, even 15 minutes of back exposure (fully clothed) improved vision 24 hours later — without any light entering the eyes. 40 adults (ages 25-63) participated in the study. Researchers first measured sunlight transmission by placing a radiometer against the chest of shirtless participants standing in direct midday sunlight. In a controlled lab setting, subjects were then exposed to 15 minutes of 850 nm near-infrared (NIR) LED light directed at their backs. Visual performance was evaluated before and 24 hours after exposure using color contrast sensitivity tests. To isolate systemic effects from direct eye...</description>

      <description>Fresh report exposes how "protect the NHS" fearmongering backfired The authoritarian COVID lockdowns and stay-at-home orders sold as life-saving measures have been unmasked once again as a deadly failure of big government overreach. A new UK Covid-19 Inquiry report has concluded that the relentless "Stay Home, Protect the NHS, Save Lives" messaging likely cost thousands of lives by convincing people they could not get access to health services. The inquiry, led by Baroness Hallett, slammed the slogan created by Cabinet Office officials without input from health leaders. It "led some people to feel they must avoid burdening the NHS" and "may have inadvertently sent the message that healthcare was closed," contributing to a sharp decline in A&amp;amp;E attendances for life-threatening emergencies such as heart attacks.</description>

      <description>A federal judge deemed 'too radical' by GOP lawmakers during his confirmation hearings said on Thursday that he will grant a motion by blue states to vacate (reverse) a declaration by HHS Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. blocking breast removal and other procedures for youths with gender dysphoria. Oregon US District Judge Mustafa Kasubhai, who was appointed by Biden in late 2024 and only confirmed after Senate Democrats invoked cloture on his nomination by a 51-43 vote, said during a hearing that he would soon issue a formal written opinion and an order denying the government's bid to dismiss the states' case, and granting the states' motion for summary judgement, according to court records. Kennedy issued a declaration in late 2025 that "ex-rejecting procedures for children and adolescents are neither safe nor effective as a treatment modality for gender dysphoria, gender incongruence, or other related disorders in minors, and therefore, fail to meet professional recognized...</description>

      <title>DMSO- The Cheap, Forgotten Therapy Quietly Treating What Medicine Calls "Incurable"</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505233-DMSO-The-Cheap-Forgotten-Therapy-Quietly-Treating-What-Medicine-Calls-Incurable</link>
      <description>The following information is based on a report originally published by A Midwestern Doctor. Key details have been streamlined and editorialized for clarity and impact. Read the original report here. This 75-year-old, who had been blind since birth, suddenly regained his sight after using DMSO to cure sinusitis. Ten years ago, doctors gave up on him: "There's really nothing I can do." But when he used DMSO to treat his sinusitis, he "became aware of the fact that [he] could see color with [his] left eye, which [he] found to be interesting." "I can see color quite distinctly now. I can see detail," Murray said. "I can count fingers, which I could never do before." DMSO has repeatedly been shown to help heal eye issues medicine still can't solve, like blindness and macular degeneration, while also reducing floaters and cataracts. But helping the eyes is just the surface of what DMSO can do. Because once you dig deeper, you start to see that many diseases we've been told are...</description>

      <description>Colorectal cancer — cancer of the large intestine or rectum — is now the leading cause of cancer deaths in people under 50 in the U.S., a new study finds. Colorectal cancer incidence and mortality have been increasing in people under 50 each year since 2013 and 2004, respectively, according to research published March 2 by the American Cancer Society (ACS). This rise in early onset diagnoses is driven by advanced-stage disease. (Colorectal cancer is also known as bowel cancer.) "The trend is very serious," study co-authors Rebecca Siegel, Nikita Sandeep Wagle and Dr. Ahmedin Jemal told Live Science in a jointly written email. Siegel is senior scientific director of cancer surveillance research at the ACS; Sandeep Wagle is principal scientist of cancer surveillance research at the ACS; and Jemal is senior vice president of surveillance, prevention and health services research at the ACS. "Colorectal cancer is the only common cancer [in people] under 50 with rising mortality," they...</description>

      <title>Crying wolf? CDC says 'little-known' virus with no vaccine spreading in US</title>

      <description>The human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is spreading in the United States, including in California and the Great Lakes region, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Symptoms include cough, fever, and nasal congestion, and, unlike better-known respiratory viruses, HMPV does not have a vaccine or known treatments, the CDC stated. "There's no specific treatment that's generally recommended," Dr. Dean Blumberg, chief of pediatric infectious diseases at the University of California-Davis Children's Hospital, said in a video released by the school. "For the youngest children, using a bulb syringe to clear the congestion can be useful. Sometimes a humidifier or vaporizer may be useful, especially if they have something like croup as a complication of infection and trying to make sure that they don't get dehydrated and get enough fluids."</description>

      <title>FLASHBACK: 56% of Americans now suspect COVID-19 'vaccines' caused mass-deaths</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505159-56-of-Americans-now-suspect-COVID-19-vaccines-caused-mass-deaths</link>
      <description>Peer-reviewed analysis exposes how the vaccine cartel propped up its fraudulent talking point — "millions of lives saved" — with computer models, false assumptions, and censorship. Public opinion is shifting — and they want action. A new Rasmussen survey of 1,158 likely U.S. voters — conducted September 7-9, 2025, with a ±3% margin of error — reveals that 56% believe side effects from the COVID-19 shots have likely caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. Nearly one-third (32%) say it's very likely. Only 35% still dismiss the idea. This shows that what was once called a "conspiracy theory" has become the mainstream view. The majority of Americans now believe vaccine harms are real and widespread. Support for HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reflects this shift. Half of voters (50%) say government health officials deserve criticism for their handling of the pandemic, while 42% even think CDC employees should be fired for their role in misleading the public. Among those...</description>

      <description>A newly surfaced CIA document suggests US intelligence once reviewed research that hinted at a possible cancer treatment more than 60 years ago. The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors. The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy. The research also highlighted experiments showing that certain chemical compounds were capable of targeting both parasitic infections and malignant tumors.</description>

      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/505050-Polling-Reveals-A-Profound-Shift-on-Vaccines-We-Cant-Let-Pharma-Bury-It</link>
      <description>Story at a Glance: - Due to widespread media and scientific censorship, accurate information which challenges pharmaceutical interests is difficult to obtain. Polling offers a unique means to bypass this blockade. - Extensive polling shows 9%-34% of COVID vaccine recipients developed side effects from the vaccine, 7-13% developed serious side effects, 7.5-22% know someone with a severe vaccine injury, 24-28% know someone who they believe died from the vaccine and 46-55% believe the COVID vaccines have killed a significant number of people. - These results are profound and likely account for the unprecedented loss of trust in doctors and hospitals since COVID (from 71.5% to 40.1%) which is mirrored by a significant loss of trust in the pharmaceutical industry, government health authorities and support for childhood vaccinations (which, now, almost half of the population no longer fully trusts). - MAHA's policies and accomplishments, including those towards vaccines, are now some of...</description>

      <description>Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and 12 other senators introduced legislation on March 5 that would force the nation's largest meatpackers to break up their operations across beef, pork, and poultry, in the latest push in the Democratic affordability agenda heading into the 2026 midterm elections. The Family Grocery and Farmer Relief Act would make it illegal for a major meatpacking company to control more than one type of meat, impose concentration caps on beef markets, and give the Federal Trade Commission authority to order divestitures of plants and facilities. The bill would also bar foreign-controlled meatpacking companies, including Brazil-based JBS, from operating in the United States.</description>

      <description>Researchers identified plastic particles in 90% of tumor samples and 70% of benign samples Small fragments of plastic were found in the tumors of most prostate cancer patients, according to a new study from NYU Langone Health. In past studies, microplastics have been found in almost every human organ and in bodily fluids, but their impact on human health still isn't fully understood. The researchers analyzed tissue samples from 10 patients with prostate cancer who underwent surgery to remove the entire organ. Using visuals of both benign samples and tumor samples, as well as specialized equipment, the scientists identified plastic particles in 90% of the tumor samples and 70% of benign tissue samples, according to the study press release.</description>

On the first episode of Informed with Aaron Siri, Dr. Russell Surasky — one of the rare physicians in the U.S. double board-certified in neurology and preventive medicine — breaks his silence. Specializing in complex neurological pain, headaches, spinal disorders, and challenging diagnostic cases, he shares firsthand experiences with acute vaccine adverse events — cases that are quietly acknowledged but rarely reported. Dr. Surasky speaks out on what needs to be exposed: the profound cognitive dissonance within medicine. He reveals a rare look behind the closed doors of the medical establishment and how it treats cases of serious vaccine harm.

      <title>Study finds explanation of how ketogenic diets prevent seizures</title>

      <description>New findings in mice shed light on brain's response to the keto diet, long known to help treat some patients with epilepsy A ketogenic diet — one that is high in fat and extremely low in carbohydrates — has been known for decades to reduce seizures in some epilepsy patients. But how the highly restrictive diet achieves these effects has not previously been understood. Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have now shown in mice that the diet causes physical changes in brain cells affecting how they send information to one another, dampening the strength of the signals between them. This quieter neural landscape might explain how the diet calms the overactive electrical signaling that characterizes an epileptic seizure. The study appears this month in Cell Reports.</description>

      <description>SuperAgers' hippocampi have a unique environment that supports the birth, survival of new neurons A new study finds that SuperAgers produce between two and two and a half times more new neurons than their healthy peers and peers with Alzheimer's disease, respectively, which may help explain why their memory stays strong with age. Photo by Shane C... SuperAgers don't just preserve their memory abilities well into their 80s and beyond — their brains continue to generate new neurons in the hippocampus at levels far higher than typical older adults, and even much younger individuals. That is the groundbreaking finding from a new study led by scientists at University of Illinois Chicago (UIC), who examined, in part, donated brains from the Northwestern University SuperAger Program. SuperAgers are a unique group of adults over age 80 whose performance on tests of episodic memory was equal to or better than that of people in their 50s.</description>

      <title>The Glyphosate E.O</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504814-The-Glyphosate-E-O</link>
      <description>The Executive Order signed this week regarding glyphosate has stirred deep concern among Americans who had rallied behind Trump's plan to "drain the swamp." The Administration seemed to be moving the country toward restored health. The MAHA Movement, in particular, assumed the health of our nation would include an immediate separation from the chemical soup that is unfortunately found in our food. But then, this EO appeared out of nowhere, tying glyphosate to national defense? For those who have spent years dealing with a chronic illness from an environmental exposure, this question feels unavoidable: Why would an Administration that was beginning to recognize, on a large scale, the biological consequences of environmental toxins, take steps to secure the continued supply of one of the most widely used, poisonous herbicides in history?</description>

      <title>Trump Directs USDA to Prioritize Domestic Glyphosate, Phosphorus Production</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504764-Trump-Directs-USDA-to-Prioritize-Domestic-Glyphosate-Phosphorus-Production</link>
      <description>Invoking the Defense Production Act, President Donald Trump on Wednesday designated glyphosate-based herbicides and elemental phosphorus as critical to national defense and ordered Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins to prioritize and secure domestic supplies. The order also grants legal immunity to domestic producers that comply with federal directives and gives USDA authority to direct production and control distribution if necessary. Citing the Defense Production Act, Trump declared phosphorus and glyphosate products are essential not only for agriculture but also for military readiness.

The designation also allows the president to direct the production of both products and control the distribution of them.</description>

      <title>The Atlantic Busted Fabricating Dead Kid Measles Story</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504730-The-Atlantic-Busted-Fabricating-Dead-Kid-Measles-Story</link>
      <description>Last Thursday, The Atlantic published a heart-wrenching story about an 11-month-old child who died of measles. Written in the second person from the perspective of a mother whose two unvaccinated children fell ill with the disease, the story is rich with personal detail; "You plant her on the couch with a blanket and put Bluey on the TV while she drifts in and out of sleep..." "While the kids are napping, you tap a list of your daughter's symptoms into Google and find a slew of diseases that more or less match up..." "Her cough wracks her whole body, rounding her delicate bird shoulders. She does not sleep well. And as you lift up her pajama top to check her rash one morning, you see that her breathing is labored, shadows pooling between her ribs when she sucks in air." Turns out, NONE OF THAT HAPPENED. The Atlantic's Elizabeth Bruenig simply made it up, leading to mass confusion. As Laura Hazard Owen of NiemanLab - who initially busted Bruenig - writes:</description>

      <title>MMR and MMRV Vaccines Linked to 2,657% More U.S. Deaths Than Measles Infection Since 1995</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504711-MMR-and-MMRV-Vaccines-Linked-to-2657-More-US-Deaths-Than-Measles-Infection-Since-1995</link>
      <description>For decades, Americans have been told that measles represents a grave and ongoing threat — and that MMR vaccination is one of the safest and most effective interventions in modern medicine. Pharma-captured mass media and public health agencies have centered almost exclusively on the minimal dangers of measles infection and ignored grieving parents whose children were injured or even killed by the shots. No proper attention has been paid to signals emerging within the federal government's own vaccine safety database. Now, our new McCullough Foundation study titled "Deaths Following MMR and MMRV Vaccination in the United States," authored by Kirstin Cosgrove, Breanne Craven, Claire Rogers, John A. Catanzaro, Albert Benevides, M. Nathaniel Mead, Mila Radetich, Peter A. McCullough, and Nicolas Hulscher (myself), takes a comprehensive look at reported fatal outcomes following MMR and MMRV vaccination in the United States, doing the work that our public health agencies should have done...</description>

      <title>Coffee tied to lower dementia risk, Harvard-MIT study finds</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504691-Coffee-tied-to-lower-dementia-risk-Harvard-MIT-study-finds</link>
      <description>New research published in JAMA reveals a strong reason to feel even better about being three to four espressos deep before the cash market opens in New York. Here's the short version of the findings: Caffeinated coffee was linked to lower dementia risk. Comparing the highest vs lowest consumption groups, the study reported a hazard ratio of 0.82 (95% CI, 0.76 to 0.89), which means higher caffeinated coffee intake was associated with lower risk. People also reported less subjective cognitive decline. The higher-intake group had 7.8% prevalence vs 9.5% in the lower-intake group (prevalence ratio 0.85). The "sweet spot" looked moderate. The most pronounced differences showed up around 2 to 3 cups per day of caffeinated coffee. Decaf did not show a significant association with dementia risk. The long-running study, led by researchers from Mass General Brigham, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and the Broad Institute of MIT, tracked 131,821 U.S. adults for four decades and...</description>

      <title>Human "biology was never intended to handle" ultra-processed foods, former FDA head David Kessler warns</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504678-Human-biology-was-never-intended-to-handle-ultra-processed-foods-former-FDA-head-David-Kessler-warns</link>
      <description>Today, an increasing number of Americans across the political spectrum - from Make America Healthy Again activists to everyday shoppers - are voicing concern about the health impact of ultraprocessed foods - those boxed and wrapped in plastic, ready-to-eat items lining grocery store shelves. Leading the charge are two men who disagree on pretty much everything else about public health - Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. David Kessler, the former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The two men have found common ground over a common culprit: a 67-year-old government classification for substances in our food. It's called GRAS, or generally recognized as safe. Kennedy and Kessler say it has allowed big food companies to use ingredients without a full government safety review and flood the market with ultraprocessed foods that now make up 50% of our calories and 60% of our children's diets.</description>

      <title>Is the Definition of Alzheimer's Being Changed to Sell Drugs?</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504623-Is-the-Definition-of-Alzheimers-Being-Changed-to-Sell-Drugs</link>
      <description>Alzheimer's is a specific disease that causes shrinkage in the central region of the brain called the Medial Temporal Lobe. It accounts for two thirds of dementia diagnoses. While a 'dementia' diagnosis can be made from a Cognitive Function Test alone - showing poor function - diagnosing 'Alzheimer's dementia' requires a brain scan of this central area of the brain. This is sometimes referred to as shrinkage of the hippocampus, which is a central part of the brain that is critical for memory. This shrinkage is not a normal part of ageing. It is a disease. So Alzheimer's is diagnosed on the basis of both a loss of cognitive function and physical evidence of significant brain shrinkage.</description>

      <title>NCI studying ivermectin's 'ability to kill cancer cells'</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504603-NCI-studying-ivermectins-ability-to-kill-cancer-cells</link>
      <description>— No new evidence cited that might have prompted this move The National Cancer Institute (NCI), the federal research agency charged with leading the war against the nation's second-largest killer, is studying ivermectin as a potential cancer treatment, according to its top official. "There are enough reports of it, enough interest in it, that we actually did -- ivermectin, in particular -- engage in sort of a better preclinical study of its properties and its ability to kill cancer cells," said Anthony Letai, MD, PhD, who was appointed NCI director by the Trump administration in September. Letai did not cite new evidence that might have prompted the institute to research the effectiveness of the antiparasitic drug against cancer. The drug, largely used to treat people or animals for infections caused by parasites, is a popular dewormer for horses. "We'll probably have those results in a few months," Letai said. "So we are taking it seriously."</description>

      <title>FDA Refuses to Review Moderna's Influenza Vaccine for Potential Approval</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504598-FDA-Refuses-to-Review-Modernas-Influenza-Vaccine-for-Potential-Approval</link>
      <description>The FDA has declined to initiate a review of Moderna's biologics license application (BLA) for its investigational influenza vaccine, mRNA-1010, issuing a Refusal-to-File (RTF) letter that hinges on trial design rather than concerns about the vaccine's safety or effectiveness. Moderna announced that the FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) determined it could not review the application because the company used a licensed standard-dose seasonal influenza vaccine as the comparator in a pivotal phase 3 efficacy study. According to the RTF letter, signed by CBER Director Vinayak Prasad, MD, MPH, the comparator did not reflect the "best-available standard of care," and therefore did not meet the requirement for an "adequate and well-controlled" study.</description>

      <description>The global expansion of high-containment biolabs without oversight — increasingly engaged in Nipah virus research — combined with aggressive patent consolidation of Nipah's core glycoproteins and their integration into mRNA and self-amplifying mRNA (saRNA) injection platforms, represents a profound and escalating global biosecurity risk. A recent study identified 3,625 Biosafety Level-3 and Level-4 laboratories worldwide: 73% do not publicly disclose their locations or pathogen activities91% of countries operating BSL-3 labs lack dual-use research oversightRoughly half of global facilities are located in the United StatesMore than 300 documented lab leaks have occurred since 2001.</description>

      <title>Psychedelics may rewire the brain to treat PTSD. Scientists are finally beginning to understand how</title>
      <link>https://www.sott.net/article/504525-Psychedelics-may-rewire-the-brain-to-treat-PTSD-Scientists-are-finally-beginning-to-understand-how</link>
      <description>For researcher Lynnette Averill, the quest to find a treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is deeply personal. Averill's father served as an enlisted infantryman with the U.S. Marine Corps in Vietnam and struggled to cope with his war experiences when he returned home. After years of ineffective treatments, he died by suicide when Averill was three. Driven by a mission to support veterans' mental health, Averill trained as a psychologist and began working with people with PTSD — a condition that affects more than 12 million Americans in any given year. Victims of violence, abuse and accidents can experience post-traumatic symptoms such as persistent flashbacks, hypervigilance, and entrenched negative beliefs about themselves and their environment. "People can be very stuck in black-and-white thinking, such as, 'I'm a bad person,' 'I deserve this,' 'the world is dangerous," Averill, a clinical research psychologist at the Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, said...</description>
